(KNOX) – The East Grand Forks Fire Department would like to give a few reminders about fireworks safety.
– Only use Minnesota-legal fireworks like sparklers, fountains, ground spinners, and snappers.
– Point fireworks away from people and animals.
– Use fireworks in an open area away from trees and houses.
– Extinguish and dispose of spent fireworks in a bucket of water. Do no try to relight a dud.
– Always use caution around fireworks and make sure children are supervised.
